My parents met at Cal in 1942, our family has called the Bay Area home ever since. In 1975, halfway through the 6th grade, I was uprooted from Burlingame and spent Jr.High in Jakarta, Indonesia. I did my undergraduate course work at UCSD in La Jolla where I completed a double major in Comparative Politics and Histories of the Americas. Oliver North and the CIA managed to shatter the foundations of the Latin America desk at the State Department so rather than enter the foreign service I started temping at a law firm as a legal assistant in 1986 . After a dozen or so years as a Sr. Legal Assistant I headed the staff for the technology litigation group at Cooley Godward in Palo Alto. On Independence Day 1988 5 partners 3 secretaries and my paralegal squad bid farewell to the big firm womb. I remain extremely proud of my role as a founding member of a start-up boutique IP law firm, Day Casebeer, LLP. I was fortunate to have outstanding client work in the Life Sciences/Biotech sector on behalf of Amgen, Applied Bio Systems, Genentech, Alza and ICOS. On the EE side I headed the discovery battle for SUN in the JAVA litigation against Microsoft as well as the antitrust actions that followed the browser wars. After 22 years as a paralegal administrator, trial support specialist and the master chief of bet the company no holds barred patent litigation, I resigned in 2007 to address the care of my elderly parents.
